Using an tkinter input box for your data projects

There may be an occasion as you are building out a data science or data analytics project, checks need to be performed on the dataset as follows:

•  Big data sets and speed requirements in conjunction with
• The need to reduce the volume of data returned which is impeding performance

and this is where input boxes and Tkinter can help!

In the below video, we are demonstrating an introduction to using an input box and validating the input.

We demonstrate how to validate the data entered into the tkinter input box and return a message, this will ensure the user gets the correct data.

Types of uses for a tkinter input box are varied, here are some thoughts:
